september mama

she felt hot yesterday, armpit temp said 100.7. today i took it rectally and yikes, it's 102.2. she's not into eating. she vomited in the kitchen earlier. she seems a little weird and slightly cranky (though she's honestly never cranky, even when she is). her eyes look sick, if that makes any sense. i have a suspicion that she has a headache, but of course i can't verify that.

i'm taking her to the doctor this afternoon, a new pediatrician local to us. (side note: his experience is wild, having spent 11 years in iran treating pediatric war victims and counseling PTSD... he's worked in other countries as well. i am highly impressed.) i am sort of feeling that she might have roseola, because i think i saw a little rash-like deal on her back this morning, but i thought nothing of it at the time. now she's napping and i can't check it out, but that's my hunch. no idea where she could've got it, except that we played at this water park type-thing last week and there were a ton of kids...

did i ever mention she is walking???? started last week or so, after seeing her little cousin do it. yay! :)
